  • I am from Iceland and I couldn't be more happier, I have a girlfirned, I don't have a mortgage, I don't own a car.

    I drink alot and I dance alot. My grandfather had to eat horse shit just to stay alive when he was young. He lived to be 99 years old(no joke)

    So me eating overprised rice and onion is no biggie.

    I will start eating sheeps testicles like they did here 50 years ago if it will keep me alive.

    Greatings from Iceland

    (wich will soon be known -due to global warming as "Landland")

  • The world will soon understand that we icelanders are not only economically mad but all together completely insane and have been for 1000 years with an ice cube for a brain and are an incestuous tribe who is just laughing it's head of about this fun situation.

  • I'm from Iceland. And i'm probably the happiest person in the world hehehe. I love it here.

  • @Royalistur

    Your Wrong about that.

  • Iceland can never survive as an independent state, which is why they are now coming on their knees begging the EU to let them in. They should have stayed the Danish province they used to be; 300.000 sheep-farmers and fishermen forming an independent nation is just ridiculous.

  • @staleerik i just started the book and i think it is about much more than that, he has a much deeper analysis. i think it was just a simple point for him to make against people who say that because iceland is economically troubled at the moment they must be unhappy.
